Delta State Government Invites Bids to Complete Abandoned University Senate Facility

 The Delta State Government, through the State Tenders Board, has formally invited qualified engineering contractors to submit competitive bids for the completion of the long-abandoned Senate and Administrative Building of Delta State University (DELSU), Abraka. The public procurement exercise follows Governor Sheriff Oborevwori's earlier revocation of the 23-year-old stalled contract, which was initiated alongside new tenders for various state road construction and regional drainage projects.

Allowing landmark administrative assets to rot in an abandoned state for over two decades represents a massive waste of public funds and hampers university management and planning. Resolving this legacy delay and advertising the contract transparently alongside other critical infrastructure - including a female hostel block at the Delta State Marine Polytechnic, Burutu - improves learning conditions and helps the state capture maximum developmental value from its capital budgets.

This project recovery initiative demonstrates a highly disciplined approach to public procurement, contract tracking, and subnational infrastructure management. By actively revoking non-performing legacy agreements and subjecting long-delayed projects to competitive bidding, the administration reinforces fiscal accountability and ensures the timely delivery of vital public assets.
